It's a Brand New Year

Wow, another year has passed us by and it's time to think about what we want this year to be. I plan to go full speed ahead with my home business. I admit the last few months were not spent doing what I needed to do to bring my business forward. I only have myself to blame for any lack of success.

This year I plan to do double duty with submitting to link directories, article submissions and traffic exchanges. I have been fairly regular with my home business blog. I will also be researching new ways to advertise my business.

Here are my stats for the last 2.5 months:

Newsletter subscribers have increased by 135, although some have unsubnscribed since then. Referrals in my various programs go like this: SFI 1; LAB 4; NPN 1; Hits2U 1; Traffic Swarm 4. I know, I know, it looks bad, but it's my own fault!! I didn't work the business like it needed to be worked. I'm hoping this year will bring better results and you will be the first to know!

Long Overdue Update!

It's been way too long since my last update. I do post regularly on my business blog though.

Ok, since my last update I have been keeping up with submitting my site to link directories and articles to article directories. I've been slacking on the traffic exchanges. This last few weeks I haven't been doing as much as I should though. I had some surgery so my mind has been elsewhere, but I will be back in action soon.

Newsletter subscribers have increased by 122 since my last update (almost 2 months). Referrals in my various programs have been minimal: SFI 17; LAB 3; NPN 1; MPM 1; IMC 1; H2U 6; GDI 2

I've got to get my mind back in the game and I will, I think I just need a little time to get there. I'm not out though so don't think I'm giving up, because I'm not!!

Slow Month

I'm sure others can relate. This month has been very slow. Everyone is enjoying the last month of summer I'm sure! I am but I'm also looking forward to school in a little over a week lol.

As for what's been happening this month: I invested in some Get Response opt in leads. They are coming in slowly but that's ok. My list has grown a little bit. I've had about 39 subscribers (20 from the power leads). 12 SFI referrals (1 EA), 1 GDI referral, 3 LAB referrals, 1 MPM referral and 5 Hits2U referrals.

I just joined My Power Mall as it is a newer part of Hits2U so I have to learn more about that. I'm not rushing though as I have lots of other stuff to do with my PIPS business. I'm doing the usual everyday stuff like, writing and submitting articles, blogging, link submitting, traffic exchanges, and classifieds.

I'm hoping what is said about business picking up in the fall is true. I'm really looking forward to my business taking off! I have a lot of plans lol. My husband really needs a break from working so hard!

Here's to good and successful business.....on to another month!

I Feel Success Will be Mine

I'm still loving what I'm doing. Here's an update on my progress this month: 19 subscribers to my newsletter, 10 referrals in SFI (1 EA), 4 referrals in Leisure Audio Books (1 upgrade), 1 full PIPS referral, 1 referral in NPN.

I know this is just the beginning and things will be picking up month after month. I've been submitting to article directories, social networking sites, blogging, posting in forums, and submitting to link directories.

This new program that has become part of PIPS looks very promising and I'm looking forward to see how things go with it. This new program is called Leisure Audio Sales (LAB). They have over 6000 titles meticulously sorted into 160 categories in a feature- packed store. You can check out the store here and the business opportunity here, which is free to join by the way;)

Here's to continued success!!

Small Update

Well, it's been a while since my last update. Not much has been happening so that's probably why I haven't updated lol. Not much to say. I've been getting a sign up and/or subscriber here and there. My links have gone up to over 1200. I've been busy submitting articles, submitting links to link directories, blogging, posting on forums, and placing classifides.

I signed up for a new list building service. The mailing option just opened up so I sent my first mailing yesterday. It's called List Bandit. We'll see if it makes any difference.






My Home Business Blog has been getting quite a few hits from the search engines. Several different key words and phrases have been producing results. Some of the weirdest phrases too lol. How about "regulations regarding dog groomer" lol. I like that one. I'm on page 1, position #2 on google. I think it's kinda funny.

My main website, Work at Home Business Opportunities has been getting a few hits here and there from the search engines. It's coming along slowly but surely.
